Documentation update for WSL

This issue is about

• [ ] Man pages or command-line usage
• [x] Website documentation
• [ ] Packaging
• [ ] Other

Describe the issue

In the page on alternate files, the a small note states

• The OS for “Windows Subsystem for Linux” is reported as “WSL”, even though uname identifies as “Linux”.
• The OS for Linux-like runtimes for Windows (e.g. MinGW, Cygwin) is obtained by running uname -o.

This appears to be outdated, as WSL currently reports GNU/Linux OS: Windows 11 WSL version 2 Linux distro: Ubuntu 20.04

Inside WSL (Ubuntu 20.04)

$ uname -o
GNU/Linux

$ hostname
<My windows computer hostname>

The documentation probably requires update for this newer feature of WSL

What version of yadm are you using? See https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm/issues/429

Sorry, I usually use the search feature, but obviously did not here. My issue appears to be mirroring #429. main problem is using Ubuntu 20.04 rather than 22.04, leading to an outdated yadm, version 2.3.0-2.

> sudo apt-get -s install yadm

yadm is already the newest version (2.3.0-2).

I can either mark this as closed or confirm after doing a 20 --> 22 distro upgrade.
